This training workshop, hosted by The University of Florida and CUAHSI, will provide hands-on experiences with field methods and sensors used in microwave remote sensing for retrieval of soil and vegetation parameters in agricultural land covers. The workshop will be conducted at a field-site of an ongoing season-long experiment to understand microwave signatures of growing vegetation. The field sensors include a suite of ground-based active and passive microwave sensors at L- and C-band; and sensors to observe various components of the water and energy balance.

Graduate students, post-docs, and professionals working in hydrology and/or remote sensing are invited to attend.
Participants must bring a laptop, preferably with Matlab installed.
Participants must be aware of the field components of this workshop. There will be lectures and data collection in the field.
